Being HOME

Home is AWESOME!! Kinda don't wanna leave but that's life. I saw Starbucks and haven't been yet. Talked about it but haven't done it. Said I wanted McDonalds, ate their breakfast and didn't feel too good. Went to my old job and everybody can't believe I cut my hair. But they all love it. My own mother didn't even recognize me at the door when I showed up. That was crazy. Just crazy. I DID have on a wig though. I had to buy it because it was so cute. But she should've known it was her daughter. Oh well. I saw the lakers beat in the game last night. I was at a bar. That was AWESOME! There was AC in there. Wow! Buildings that were being worked on are done, gas is cheaper....still high as hell but cheaper. I bought some designer clothes that I have been missing. I went to the Cheesecake factory and didn't even eat any cheesecake. I had a caesar salad and stuffed mushrooms. It was soooo good. I can't finish ANY of the food I've been eating. Everybody says I LOST weight. I guess I did. All my clothes at the house are loose. I KNOW i gained 6 pounds I just don't know where it went. But I'm happy with it. It's weird not having a cell phone. Especially when everybody wants to catch up with you. I can't stop talking about Benin. It's really bad so I just don't bring it up till people ask me about it. Riding the bus is nice. I actually took a picture so I can show people in my village what the Maryland bus system is like. The bus driver thought I was crazy at first. I'm a tourist again. The harbor still stinks, but I missed that smell. That's all for now. God I love being home!!!
